Hi All,

with this message I am starting a series of meteor reports over the past
couple of weeks.
The sky stayed very transparent on July 20 so I decided to observe
(although I knew I would not get much sleep in the coming ten days). I
observed for two hours and recorded 23 meteors in total.
The brightest meteor came from the Antihelion radiant at 21:26:25 UT. It
was a 40-degree long -2. magnitude meteor that flared three times during
it's path and left a 2-second train. Another interesting meteor was a
magnitude +4. sporadic that traveled 50 degrees before it disappeared.

CLear skies!
Javor
